Panthers' Corey Thornton: Participating in training camp
Thornton (fibula) participated in Carolina's training camp Wednesday, Zach Roberts of Sports Illustrated reports.
Thornton has fully recovered from a broken fibula that landed him on the team's injured reserve last November. The 2025 undrafted free agent will now spend the remainder of the offseason competing for a roster spot as a depth cornerback.

Panthers' Chandler Zavala: Working with team during camp
Zavala (calf) is participating at the Panthers' training camp, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Zavala was put on the shelf last season after suffering a calf injury in Week 12, but he's now apparently healthy again as training camp kicks off. He figures to fill a depth role on the interior of the offensive line in 2026.

Panthers' Casey Washington: Signs with Carolina
The Panthers signed Washington to a contract Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
With fellow wide receiver Dan Chisena (undisclosed) being placed on injured reserve, Washington will get his chance to contend for a depth role with the 2026 Panthers. The 25-year-old was waived by the Falcons in mid-June, having produced seven receptions for 108 yards over 15 career regular-season games.

Panthers' Dan Chisena: Moved to IR
The Panthers placed Chisena (undisclosed) on injured reserve Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Chisena was unable to participate in Sunday's practice due to an injury. The depth receiver clearly is not in good enough shape to warrant maintaining a roster spot through camp, and his 2026 season is likely over. In a corresponding move, the team signed wide receiver Casey Washington.

Panthers' Mitchell Evans: Diagnosed with low-ankle sprain
Evans has been diagnosed with a low ankle sprain and is considered day-to-day, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.
The Panthers got another injury scare when Evans had to be carted off the field Tuesday, but Evans avoided a serious injury. The 23-year-old was a fifth-round pick last year and secured 19 of 25 targets for 171 yards and two touchdowns across 17 regular-season games as a rookie.

Panthers' Xavier Legette: In driver's seat for No. 3 role
Legette has better odds of winning Carolina's No. 3 receiver job after rookie Chris Brazzell suffered an LCL tear, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Brazzell, a third-round pick, is expected to miss the rest of the summer and at least the first few weeks of the regular season. Legette is left to compete with David Moore, John Metchie, Jimmy Horn and others for spots Nos. 3 to 6 on the depth chart. Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker are locked in as the top duo, looking like runaway favorites to rank first and second on the team in targets, though early camp hype suggests RB Jonathon Brooks might emerge as a third useful pass catcher.

Panthers' Chris Brazzell: Could miss up to eight weeks
Brazzell (knee) suffered an LCL tear in his left knee at practice Wednesday that could sideline him up to eight weeks, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Brazzell went down while participating in 7-on-7 drills on Wednesday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports, his first practice since knee soreness caused him to log a two-day absence. Per Person, his LCL injury is unrelated to that earlier soreness. While Brazzell will by all accounts be able to retake the field during his rookie season, an injury forcing him to miss presumably the rest of training camp, and potentially also regular-season time, is a notable blow. The rookie third-round pick had been putting together impressive momentum and seemingly been positioning himself to challenge Xavier Legette for the No. 3 wide receiver role in Carolina.

Panthers' Chris Brazzell: Aggravates knee injury
Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Wednesday that Brazzell (knee) has aggravated the same knee injury that caused him to miss the team's last two practices, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.
Brazzell had to be helped off the field and carted to the locker room upon after retaking the practice field Wednesday, so it's encouraging that his initial injury prognosis isn't more severe. The rookie third-round pick will work to return to full health before returning to practice at a later date in training camp. That said, Kassidy Hill of the Panthers' official site reports that Brazzell will undergo further evaluations on his left knee.

Panthers' Chris Brazzell: Helped off practice field
Brazzell suffered an apparent left leg injury during Wednesday's practice and is being helped off the field by teammates, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Brazzell missed a few days of practice due to knee soreness that manifested on Sunday, and upon returning to action Wednesday he's now suffered what seems to be a left leg injury. The rookie third-round pick reportedly is unable to put any weight on his left leg and will be carted to the locker room. The Panthers will work to diagnose the severity of Brazzell's current injury before providing an update.

Panthers' Chris Brazzell: Back at practice
Brazzell (knee) is participating in Wednesday's training camp practice, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Brazzell missed a handful of days due to knee soreness that popped up last Sunday, but the rookie third-round pick has wasted little time in retaking the field. Behind top wideouts Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker, Brazzell projects to spend camp competing with Xavier Legette, John Metchie and Jimmy Horn for the No. 3 role.

Panthers' Damien Lewis: Set to miss a few days
Lewis (calf) suffered an issue Tuesday and is questionable to practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Lewis should be able to return relatively quickly, and the left guard's ability to start the regular season should not be impacted. The 29-year-old has a history of quick turnarounds, missing only one week after suffering a shoulder injury during the 2025 season.

Panthers' Jaycee Horn: Activated from NFI list
The Panthers activated Horn (foot) from the active/non-football injury list Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Horn was recovering from a cut on his foot and was never supposed to be sidelined for very long. The starting cornerback is back in action and ready to help the Panthers attempt to win back-to-back NFC South titles and earn a third consecutive Pro Bowl season.

Panthers' Mitchell Evans: Suffers ankle issue
Evans (ankle), pending full evaluation, likely just suffered a rolled ankle this week, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.
Evans has yet to be fully medically vetted, but it has begun to look like a minor issue for the tight end. If the preliminary evaluation is correct, Evans should be set to return to training camp shortly.

Panthers' Mitchell Evans: Carted off field Tuesday
Evans (undisclosed) was carted off the field during Tuesday's practice, Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Evans suffered an apparent injury during 11-on-11 team drills. Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports that trainers are attending to Evans' lower body. The 2025 fifth-rounder suited up for all 17 regular-season games last year, handling a depth role in Carolina's tight end corps.

Panthers' Dan Chisena: Doesn't practice Sunday
Chisena (undisclosed) didn't participate in Carolina's practice Sunday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Chisena is competing for a depth receiver spot after having signed a reserve/future contract with the Panthers in January. The 28-year-old was seen on the sideline during Sunday's session, although the severity and nature of his injury is currently unknown.

Panthers' Chris Brazzell: Dealing with knee soreness
Brazzell was held out of Sunday's training camp practice due to knee soreness, Mike Kaye of the Charlotte Observer reports.
The injury doesn't appear to be a long-term concern, with head coach Dave Canales telling reporters Sunday that holding Brazzell out of practice was more of a precautionary move. Brazzell was selected by the Panthers in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and he is competing with Xavier Legette, John Metchie and 2025 sixth-rounder Jimmy Horn for the WR3 role behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker.
